Best Businesses in Austin, TX

While I did not use this company because they only do work on commercial buildings, they recommended us to one of the less known Bowne Electrical, who did a great job on my residence in a time crunch of 4 days

Amazing company, always shows up when they say they will. Guys are funny and explain everything very well. I would highly recommend this company

Rick Spicer has been our hvac man for 22 years.  22 years ago he replaced our entire hvac system, both the upstairs and the downstairs.  He helped us select which one to buy, and he knew what he was doing.  It was a job that several other hvac contractors would not take because they said installation was too difficult. Rick Spicer just came in an got it done.  We rarely had any problems with it, but when we did we would call him and if it was either hot or cold, he was always there to fix it either the day we called or the next day.  He is honest, and he is very competent.  He won't try to sell you a part or a repair that you don't need, and he will patiently explain in words that you can understand exactly what he fixed and how he fixed it, and if it is something you can do he will show you how to do it for the next time if it happens again.  Most of the time the repairs were fast.  On the few times that they were more significant, he had it fixed by the day after we called.  We have never had to go more than one day without our hvac working on days that we needed them.  We sold that home and moved to a new one 15 years later, never having had an expensive repair, because he selected the right system and always fixed problems before they got out of hand.  He has provided service for the house we moved to for 7 years now, and even though he did not install the system, he is always comes over either the day we call or the next day when we need him to and he always knows exactly how to fix it.  During the Big Freeze of February 2021 one of our water lines burst above in the downstairs ceiling.  I called him and he told us how to stop it, without turning off the water to our entire house.  He was out the next day and repaired the pipe, fast, so he could get to the hundred other customers that were frantically calling him as fast as he could.  And the repair worked.  Our upstairs ac stopped working yesterday afternoon when it 100+ outside, and he came over today and fixed it, and showed me how to fix the problem if it ever happens again.  When the time comes to replace our hvac, he will definitely be the one to do it.  We will buy whatever system he recommends, because he knows which are the best, most reliable and long lasting systems.  I can not recommend Rick highly enough: you will never be sorry you called him.  There is a reason he gets so many 5 star reviews.  The name of his company is Spicer Mechanical, and his number is 512-913-4907.

Jimmy was a life saver!  Came out same day and saved me from worries of a wooden house and  a faulty switch!

Aurelio is great.  He texted me the evening before to confirm our appointment, he showed up when he said he would, he looked at and understood the job, he gave a fair quote and then did a great job replacing about 18 switches with smart switches for us.  I'll definitely be using Aurelio for our electrical needs in the future.

Absolute Electric will figure out your electric troubles, and explain it in a way that we can understand. They do more than just hang a ceiling fan. They make sure it's right and safe. How come that light won't come on? Call them - They'll figure it out!

Scott has been amazing at helping me get my home generator up and running. Would definitely hire him again in the future.

I had issues with no electrical power for about 2 of my rooms.  One room been the computer room where we have all our electronics: internet routers, alarm hard drive, WiFi and working areas.  I was very worry because this systems are essential for me but more for my wife, who is a teacher and does a lot of computer work for lessons plans, etc.
 We are thankful that were we're taking care of our electric issues by Mr. John and Mr. Steve who were super professional, skill, polite and approachable.   As soon as they came in my house they when to test and diagnose the problem that was fix in one hour.  From now on you can count on getting my business and my family.
  Once again I would like to express our gratitude for a great job done.

Levi and Johnny did a great job. They explained everything to me as they worked. They cleaned up after their work and put everything back in place before leaving.

I can't tell you enough how much I like these guys.  They have done work at my house several times, including changing out every outdoor fixture, and several indoors, too.  Additionally, they put in an electric box at my pond outside and a pole lantern.  I have had a little trouble with the box at my pond, but every time I call Grant or Seymour, they take good care of us. (The heavy rains recently have caused a lot of problems (not caused by SCE) They're hard to get in touch with at times, but you have to keep in mind that many people that own their own business do it with a cell phone, and at times they are in the middle of work.  They are hard working, and I realize that for good help, sometimes I'm not the first in line.  I am a Realtor, and I recommend them to my clients, and will use them every time I need work done at my own crib.  They're awesome!!

Oscar was great and very helpful. I got a quote from many other electricians and were waaaaay off from Oscar. They were trying to sell me something I didnt need. Oscar was honest and fair. He fixed my issue without selling me something I didnt need. I recommend him for all your electrical needs.

Bob and his company did a great job installing our back porch outlets, fans and TV's a few years ago. I have recommended him and his company to many people. They do good quality work at a good value.

Just had excellent experience with this company. Team was efficient, detail oriented, and thoughtful about the projects that weren't super straightforward. They arrived on time as well. I had 2 chandeliers installed, 1 chandelier moved and 1 sconce installed in future kids room. I will use them in the future.

Great service! We needed more electric outlets installed in our garage and Tomas was very knowledgeable and was able to assess exactly what we needed. He was also quick to install and very professional.

Very quick to respond and easy to work with. Honest work at a very good price. Will use again.

Apex electric has completed three jobs at my house.  One was an emergency breaker job late at night, a Tesla charger in my garage and two outlet issues. All the jobs were completed fast and at a great price.   I highly recommend Apex.

Had an issue with an outlet which I could not figure out and had Brian come out and he spent 20ish minutes and had it nailed.  Fixed it, really reasonable and a good guy.  I'm definitely using these guys again.

I would not hire this company for cabling work.  I don't know if they are competent for electrical work, but cable work is not their forte.  They sent workers out who did not seem to know what they were doing and couldn't answer questions, were noncommittal in their responses and intended to leave cabling wires etc. sprawling out of the walls because they don't organize and secure the cables/wires that they run.  It was a totally worthless experience.  I paid them $300 for nothing.

The customer service manager called me this morning and said they would send over a tech to revise. They sent the same tech which from the beginning asked if I had purchased the warranty. I said no and then he said that it would be $197 for a diagnostic. He implied that because I added a cover to the outlet I was the one who ruined it and that why hadn't I called earlier. I thanked them and will call someone else. Original service was performed in April and I called in May. It would of taken the tech 15 minutes to replace the outlet and provide great service but it seems that is no Longer a priority. The tech did step out to van so it seems he did get approval from superiors for outcome of this visit which shows that the poor service and lack of warranty is systemic. I wish the nice lady over the phone would have avoided me further humiliation and just not sent anyone and let me know R,s policy is as is no warranty.This was a 30 minute fix tech was over as a courtesy it should of been fixed instead of all this back and fort. It has now been taken care off by another company and took less than 30 minutes. I am thankful that I am only out of 300 as I see in all these Yelp reviews that people have much bigger issues.
